Best Roller Coaster in U.S., Canada From CBS

[SoMuchWin]

http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7418546n&tag=strip CBS takes a look at some of the best roller coaster across North America, so what do you think about it all? I lost all faith when i heard mention of Millenium Force having the best drop, DFKM.

It does have one of the best drops?

But at least he knows quality.

Gotta say this is better than most of these "best coasters" lists you usually see from the media.

Also, DFKM?

Wait... Seabreeze got national attention.......

My own backyard has something "worthwhile." Who would have thought.

 

[caffeine_demon]

not a bad list - but I might have had skyrush as scariest!

 

[CookieCoasters]

I would have had X2 as the scariest coaster

I kind of get a kick out of how they put Levi up with other renowned coasters like MF and Bizarro, maybe CW actually has a chance in this yr's GTAs, (he desperately hopes!) But seriously, with Jack Rabbit being the exception, it's just the top coasters wood and steel from the GTAs.

I would have had X2 as the scariest coaster

Thats what I would pick as well.

Just when I was thinking it was a good article...

Best incline and descent: Millennium Force, Cedar Point, Ohio

This steel coaster, the first "complete circuit" coaster, features 80-degree drops, goes 93 mph, and is the second-longest coaster in the world

First "complete circuit" coaster????

2nd longest in the world??

sigh.... :roll:

They probably meant first complete-circuit 300+ foot tall coaster, so that's just a typo. But yeah, the 2nd-longest thing is just a head-scratcher. Not sure where in the world they would have gotten that 'fact.' Proofreading, proofreading..
